Hi all.
Just to introduce myself, I'm jim from North Yorkshire and have found my passion with Barbel fishing. It's been 10 years plus since I chucked a line in and only ever fished ponds back in the day.
Started fishing for barbel in early November 2016 and it took me 3-4 weeks before I got my fist barbel 7lb 4oz chuffed to bits. Plenty of chub along the way and plenty of blanks but kept pushing for a Barbel. Fished yesterday on the Swale stayed until after dark fished 2 rods single baits no freebies and it happened 10lb 10oz winter Barbel. Cannot wait to get back out. Roll on Christmas hols.
